Today's Class

We worked more on our PPs.

Class of January 25th 2010

We started a PPP showing our sliding door plans. We used Power Point because that allows us to show effects that are really neat. I haven't finished yet, but if PP can go onto blogs I'll download it here once I finish.

Class Of 22/1/2010

We went to go measure where the sliding doors would go and film an advert to buy it. It was fun, but I'm not in the advert: I was holding the camera.

We just tidied up the boxes and prepared them for when we need them.

We had a sub, and we started making a power point presentation (PPP) about our sliding doors in general.

Class of 11th January 2010 Reflection

Class TWO!
In Class we did some research about sliding doors such as when were they wanted or needed and why, how they operated and such. It was fun, but I still don't completely understand the link between our project and CT. I think it's more DT.

New Blog, New Day!

Today I created my first blog with school! My first blog ever. I'm a bit worried about having my work on the internet, but it should be alright. I'm blogging about a physical sliding door I'm making in Computer Technology.

3 things you should know BEFORE you make an automatic siding door

1. They either have a pressure or a motion sensor. When you walk under or on a stretch of area on either side of the door, it will open.
2. The door will either open side ways (in front/behind another door or between two doors) to the left or right OR 2 doors will open, sliding sideways from the middle to either side.
3. Most automatic sliding doors have sensors before/after the door, but those might not catch you in the middle of the door, so don't linger half in/half out of a sliding door!

Also

1. They're automatic. A sensor tells gears when to turn. We can find this out by taking apart and rebuilding one.
2. Why we need them. Do a brainstorm about every place that has one why they might.
3. What different styles of doors are there? Look around!
